I use Spywareblaster.
I think it is good.
BUT ! I get the following shortcuts on my screen everytime I use it.

spyblasterversion
sbinfo.dtb
sbdatabase.dtb
I delete these shortcuts - but they still return when I next use the programme.
Can anyone advise on how to get rid of them - pemanently!
Thank you!

move the .exe from your desktop to another location, like c:\program files\spywareblaster, then create a shortcut to the exe on ur desktop

That's correct - it sounds like you dragged the spywareblaster.exe to your desktop. Those "shortcuts" you are seeing are not actually shortcuts - they are files SpywareBlaster needs to run. If you reinstall SpywareBlaster to a folder (ex. C:\Program Files\SpywareBlaster) and simply right-click on the file and select "create shortcut" you can then drag the file named "Shortcut to SpywareBlaster" to your desktop.
